SHAKIRA suffered a nasty fall during a live stage performance over the weekend, with the singer twisting her ankle in the middle of her concert.
The Columbian star, 49, was performing in San Salvador on Saturday when she left fans worried during a mid-song tumble.
Singing her hit song Si Te Vas during the night, Shakira was walking across the stage when her right ankle suddenly twisted.
She then completely toppled to her side, falling onto her elbow as she brought her microphone stand down with her.
During the moment, Shakira stopped singing as gasps could be heard amongst the audience.
But ever the professional, she quickly got herself back up and managed to continue the song – with the star’s band continuing as her guitarist cheered her on.
Seeing the funny side of the accident, Shakira later took to her Instagram Stories to share the clip as she wrote in Spanish: “Don’t worry, I’m made of rubber hahah”.
The performance was part of her Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran World Tour – translated as Women No Longer Cry – with the show marking her first performance in San Salvador.
She will wrap up in the city this Sunday, before heading to Mexico and finally finishing the tour in Abu Dhabi on 4 April.
The tour kicked off last year and was confirmed as the biggest female tour of 2025, by both box office takings and ticket sales.
It came a year after her album of the same name was released, with a “diss track” to her ex Gerard Pique on its setlist.
Shakira split with the former Barcelona star, whom she shares two children with, in 2022 after 11 years together.
It followed allegations he had cheated.
But appearing to mark positivity for Shakira fans, she said the split inspired her to get stuck back into work again – hence the mighty world tour.
She said on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon in 2024: “I’ve been putting out music here and there but it was really hard for me to put together a body of work.
“I didn’t have time because of the husband factor.
“Now I’m husbandless. Yeah, the husband was dragging me down. Now I’m free. Now I can actually work.”
Referencing the name of her album, she giggled: “It’s men’s turn now.
“For too long we have been sent to cry with a script in our hands and without an end just because we are women.
